Bute Out Against Pascal, Suffers Hand Injury

Earlier this week, former super middleweight champion, Lucian Bute(31-1, 24 KO’s), withdrew from his anticipated showdown against Jean Pascal(27-2-1, 16 KO’s), which was scheduled to take place on the 25th of this month at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada, and to be aired on HBO.

Bute was forced to postpone the fight due to an injury he suffered in his left hand which will require surgery. There is no date or information suggesting when or whether the fight will go on, but Pascal’s team is currently seeking their next viable opponent for Jean.
